Gallinari has taken on the challenge of guarding the best player on opposing teams. He's had some success against Carmelo Anthony and Ray Allen. His 3 point shooting and ability to get to the free throw line has really helped him improve offensively.

Wade is the best guard in the Eastern Conference and one of the top 5 players in the NBA. His ability to knock down mid-range shots and drive to the basket at will is what makes him elite.

Nice game thread ABCD...I think the best player on the Knicks next year will be Stephon Marbury.

The Heat will win by 10 or more

Last time Wade raped the Knicks. Gallo has become a much better defender, but he's still not going to stop Wade. If we can keep Wade under 30 pts we have a chance. (Huge if)

The best player on the Knicks next season will be Wilson Chandler b/c Walsh is not going to give him an extension in Oct.
And if Walsh trade Chandler to the next team.................

Miami have to win the next 3 games to stay clear of bumbing into Orlando or Boston deep depth bench in the first round of the playoffs.

I'm watching Earl Barron vs Haslem, O'Neal, and Beasly his old team.

If less than 5 people in the country bothered watching this game, I wouldn't be surprised.

Could the NBA come up with a new rule? How about forfeit the remaining games on the schedule of any team that gets eliminated from the playoff race?

Since more than 60% of the players on the Knick roster won't be here next season and the Knicks have nothing to play for right now, they might as well bring in 12 nine-year old girls from the YMCA to play these meaningless games for the Knicks.

I've heard of "garbage time" in professional sports, but we might as well coin the term "garbage games" for these match-ups that nobody really cares about.I don't see myself talking to my future grandchildren 40 or so years from now about a 28-win-Knick team that lost by 13 points to the Miami Heat in a game in early April.

The NBA's new slogan should be, "Where Boredom Happens" because 80 percent of these games don't really interest me.

Duhon the Magnificent!

yeah, another fantastic defensive effort from Chris Duhon's Knicks.
yep, another sh*t game from Gallo, who did nothing but miss 3's. signore inconsistency. the half-****. the pringle godson.
Knicks played well enough to win, in terms of rebounding and assists, but were dreadful from 3 (7-24, led by Gallinopi's 1-9, altho Duhound was 2-3 and Skywalker was 4-6), and defensively inept. Hence, the reason the Knicks lost, yet again, was a poorly-conceived offense, with little to no dee, a microcosm of just about every loss this season. Led by starting PG Chris the Magnificent Duhon, the Captain of the Knickerbockers, who has NO REGRETS for coming to New York, instead of being back up PG for Orlando Magic; the hound is about as full of sh*t as D'amntoni, no wonder they love each other.http://www.testpress.net/knicks/pringle_houndlove.gif
